Contemporary issue in the field of management for a specific firm

You’ve probably had a bad manager or been a new manager. So you know that there are big mistakes that can be made. Let’s look at eight common issues. The first involve team-building or “teaming.”

Employees need to know what the stakes are, what the game is and how it’s played. This is often difficult for a new mid-level manager who has never quite understood herself. Further, as a new manager or with a new manager reporting to you. Remember that your company can support managers by having a clear vision and communicating it well and often. The CEO should be able to tell a great story about how the company came to be, what it stands for, where it wants to go, and what it honestly values. HR should help new employees understand why this company exists and what it strives for. Managers should reinforce this message, also not just during onboarding.

Does everyone in your organization understand the company business goals. It’s unique selling position, brand promise(s), operating environment, and marketplace realities?

Employees need to understand how they can make the biggest contribution to the vision. All employees do not need to agree with the vision, but they should be able to align their work with the institution’s goals. Performance evaluations should be conduct with an eye towards contributing to those goals. As a manager, you may have to bring the vision down from thirty-thousand feet to a more targeted level. Let your staff know how their work fits into the larger picture for your organization and also for your consumer, client, or other audience.
